Marriott's Latest Megabonus Is Now Available for Enrollment
The cards we feature here are from partners who compensate us when you are approved through our site, and this may impact how or where these products appear. We don’t cover all available credit cards, but our analysis, reviews, and opinions are entirely from our editorial team. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. Please view our advertising policy and product review methodology for more information.

Update: Some offers mentioned below are no longer available. View the current offers here.

Marriott's Megabonus is back for travel dates between February 1 through May 15, 2016. You can sign up for the bonus here (note that you'll need to be logged into your Marriott account before you click). This latest deal will provide Marriott Rewards members the chance to earn bonus points as well as free nights, although the exact details vary between members.

TPG Editor-in-Chief Zach Honig was targeted with a promo that would earn 10,000 bonus points after 15 paid nights, as well as 2,000 bonus points for each additional night (up to 20,000 total). He also has the chance to earn a free night (eligible at a Category 1-5 Marriott property) after two paid stays at a Marriott property (including Ritz Carlton).

The latest Megabonus promotion will begin soon.

To be eligible for the promotion, you must register online before your stay and before April 15, although the entire promotion will apply to stays from February 1 until May 15. Additionally, after fulfilling the two requirements listed above, members will have the chance to work toward a third bonus offer.

Overall, this is a good opportunity to earn some extra points or a free night, especially if you already have plans to stay at a Marriott property. Be sure to keep in mind that you can always earn 5 bonus points per dollar on Marriott and Ritz-Carlton stays with the Marriott Rewards Premier Credit Card.

Thanks to TPG reader Kevin D., who shared this news tip by emailing tpgtips@thepointsguy.com. We'll be sending out a $200 Visa gift card as a token of our appreciation.
